Was not going to put that engine back together WITH those *&^%$#!
nearly-stripped-phillips headed screws inside.

Anybody want some m5x20 countersunk hex-head machine screws, oxide finish?

100 cost me 11.46.

Also got too way many m8x 35 hex-head (normal bolts, not for "allen"
wrenches) in stainless.  Part-bag of 43 cost me 21.66, I needed four.

In the Great White North, but post other places is ok.

I think you mean "Allen Head", I have never seen countersunk Hex Head.

Tut Tut you should have asked on here, my local stockist would
"probably" have had all you need for a few quid.

You really need to change your fastener supplier.There`s less than a
tenners worth there.

I know, but being able 

a) to walk there while the motorized transport is immobile; and
b) to get exactly what I needed from a bin on a shelf

has a value.

Your lucky.  I got sick of phillips head screws and wanted some Torx head 
8-32s of various lengths.  I had to take 2,000.  But no more @##$%^ phillips 
head screws.  I can take a Torx head 8-32, put it on the end of the driver 
and stick it out like a fencing sword and put it into the hole without 
losing it to fall in a dangerous unrecoverable spot.
